Why would someone want to block a top contributor?

from answering thier questions? There seems to be some mis-conception that top contributors are just those who have answered a lot of questions. To the contrary don't we all know that they are people with the top number of "best" answers under their belts. Do you agree that there is a certain amount of insecurity from those who would rather not have a top contrubitor answering their questions?

Update:

Are you looking?

Update 2:

This question is not an matter of insecutiry, this question reflects on an arrogant, pompous, stalker who asked why he could not block a top contributor (though he does not understand what a top contributor means) from answering his questions. Read between the lines.

Update 3:

Many of you seem not to understand that top contributors are the answerers that YOU the voters have chosen. read the question before you answer.

Update 4:

And who said I was upset???? It's just a question, about a question.

    Yes it amazes me how much this website reflects the world and people are so affected by labels and such here. I don't care much about who answers or make any big deal about what I answer. I ask and answer all over the place. I love this site. I have received a few paranoid messages from people who make foolish assumptions. I try to put a fresh perspective on each and every question and just keep things fun.

    Top Contributors are just people that stick to one or two categories, and ask and answer alot in those categories. I like variety so thats why I dont have one, but I dont care if someone answers my question and has one or not.

    I am not aware of any procedure to block a top contributor or a bottom contributor. So your question seems a bit odd.

    I know of many "top contributers" that have less than 10% best answers but basically got it because they answer over 230 questions every day and very few of them are even worth reading because they are garbage.

  • You seem to have a inferiority complex. If someone doesn't want to hear from a "top contributor" then so be it.
